Convert sequence of JPEG images to MP4 video

ffmpeg -r 24 -pattern_type glob -i '*.JPG' -i DSC_%04d.JPG -s hd1080 -vcodec libx264 timelapse.mp4

• -r 24 - output frame rate
• -pattern_type glob -i '*.JPG' - all JPG files in the current directory
• -i DSC_%04d.JPG - e.g. DSC_0397.JPG
• -s hd1080 - 1920x1080 resolution

Slower, better quality

Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

Falsehoods

• There are always 24 hours in a day.
• February is always 28 days long.
• Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).
